It
is a rare thing to find a trio as talented as Bhán Tré.
Meaning three women in Gaelic, Bhán Tré express
a true respect for the musical traditions of the Emerald Isle. Their
third album Banshee On Your Heel conjures images of the
haunting and mystical feminine of Irish folk-law. Bhán Tré
weave together some inspiring originals as well as traditional tunes
with the sounds of fiddle, vocal harmonies, guitar, bodhran, uilleann
pipes and tin whistle.
Bhán Tré are gaining an Australia-wide profile as
they are regularly seen on the local and national festival circuit.
Based in Melbourne, Geraldine Davis, Rebecca Nita and Sue Foley have
been performing together for four years and this beautifully crafted
album is their most mature work yet. Highlights include tracks The
Stony Walls of Koroit and Pete St Johns The Fields Of Athenry.
